🇫🇷Charles Camille Saint-Saëns ： Album Finale Op.72

The concluding piece of Album Op.72, this work combines Saint-Saëns’s refined writing with lively momentum and a sense of brilliant exhilaration. While maintaining a forward-moving flow toward the ending, it shifts its character through changes in dynamics and register, making it important to distinguish the individuality of each section. In performance, the detailed passagework should be kept crisp and even without being rushed, allowing the melody to emerge naturally above the accompaniment. Toward the close, preserving clarity of sound and rhythmic sharpness rather than relying on momentum alone brings about a vivid conclusion.
